Main Ingredients
- 150g anchovies for soup (with intestines removed)
- 4 Cheongyang peppers (Korean red chilies)
Seasoning
- 1 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1 Tbsp minced garlic
- 1/2 Tbsp fine chili powder
- 3 Tbsp oligosaccharide
- 1 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1 Tbsp minced garlic
- 1/2 Tbsp fine chili powder
- 3 Tbsp oligosaccharide
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Pour a generous amount of cooking oil into a frying pan. Over medium-low heat, stir-fry the minced garlic until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic; gently stir-frying will bring out its flavor.
Step 2
Add the thinly sliced Cheongyang peppers (seeds removed after washing) and stir-fry them together. The spicy aroma of the chilies will blend with the garlic, creating a delightful scent.
Step 3
Add the prepared anchovies (with intestines removed) and soy sauce. Stir-fry quickly to prevent the anchovies from sticking to the pan. It’s important to keep stirring as you cook, almost as if you’re ‘blowing away’ any fishy smell.
Step 4
Add the fine chili powder and oligosaccharide. Stir-fry rapidly until glossy. The oligosaccharide adds sweetness and shine, while the chili powder provides a spicy kick, balancing the flavors. Continue stir-frying until the anchovies are crisp for a delicious finish!
